Appearance :

Olivia is a slight girl with what some would describe as 'classical' appearance not in the Hollywood pinup sort but in the more english soft rounded way, she has an oval face with rather delicate features that may at some point be described as pretty..but never to her face of course. She has pale skin with an 'English' complexion due to not spending enough time in the sun and hair that tends to change by the week as she's prone to messing with it. Although Olivia despises fashion she's a bit of a hypocrite but rather then dressing to the latest trend of in popular brands she prefers to comb op shops to create her own style which are usually quite distinct causing her to stick out like a sore thumb. She's rarely caught out of black, grey, red, purple and white and wears dark eyeshadow and makeup to match when she can be bothered 'dressing up'. Olivia rarely wears pants, she hates short or tight cloths being not entirely comfortable with her body at this point in life. Olivia likes to mess with people and tailors her appearance to surprise or confuse meaning that she might spend an entire month wearing only black and yet come out the next day in a pure white dress or on one noted occasion spending a day in dreaded neons. Even in school uniform she wears thick black stockings or leggings with her trademark boots, a long sleeved tshirt or arm-warmers and other 'additions' to the set uniform. Because of this she's quite often been brought up in the past stricter teachers for not being in proper uniform although to their dismay it's done little to change her attitude.

History :

Ellie's the oldest of the Davis siblings, born in St Mary's hospital in London to Simone and Arthur Davis she was soon enough followed by her brother Owen she has only a few vague memories of her mother who died in a lorry accident while crossing the street on the way home from the greengrocers one winter afternoon. Ellie was only four at this point and naturally she was confused and scared to have her life shaken up as they family moved in with relatives to help care for her and Owen who was only two at the time while Arthur struggled to keep up with raising two young children and paying the bills. A year later though the two young Davis children had a second shake-up when Arthur got married, not only had her and Owen gained a stepmother but they where going to have a sister as well! Naturally at five Ellie was suspicious (while Owen being three didn't much have opinions on anything) but she soon warmed up to the idea after seeing how happy her Dad was and by the time Kat was born Ellie was almost as protective of her sister as she was to her brother.

It wasn't long though that two of them had her world turned upside down again when her parents decided to move to South Africa, Ellie at eight had just finished her first year of school where before she knew it they where in the middle of the desert where her and her family where the only white kids around! Unlike Owen who was quite happy to be go along with whatever happened Ellie didn't take so easily to the life and was often the one to withdraw from games and spend her time reading or helping her Dad instead while being a tad jealous of her younger sister Kat who she learnt was magical like her stepmother. She managed well enough although her favourite time was always when they returned to England where she was able to go to school and do things like a normal girl without having to worry about stepping on poisonous spiders, being eaten by a tiger or catching one of the millions of tropical diseases and when she was 17 she chose to remain in England with relatives rather then go with her family to Malaysia instead she completed her GSCE and was accepted to do Arts at UCL. So while her family where living in the jungle Ellie was studying, involving herself with the UCL Student Union and waiting tables to pay the rent of her small flat. This changed less then half a year later when Owen turned up on her doorstep and promptly moved in as neither Davis kid was often long in one place without the other following suit. With friends from the woman's collective urging her despite her misgivings she attended the 2000 May Day Protest and gained her first arrest when she hit back at a policeman who had tried to separate her from Owen.

Upset at the attitude the authorities and living below the poverty line at UCL Ellie dropped out and her and Owen moved to Sandwhich Bay where their Dad's cousin owned a block of apartments. For a few years things where better, Ellie took odd jobs and started a degree in Woman's Studies at the University of Kent while Owen had managed to pass his way though to be accepted at Leeds University however it didn't take long for the 'culture' to get to her younger brothers head. Ellie knew Owen had always been easily led but at Leeds he managed to fall in with the 'Hip Crowd' and though band reversals it didn't take long for him to get introduced to the drug culture where before Ellie knew it Owen had stopped cutting his hair, failed his classes and all but dropped out of university together. This fractured the elder Davis kids with Ellie soon growing infuriated with Owen who had becoming increasingly irresponsible to the point that he abandoned her to go backpacking before showing up one morning with some girl. Unable to put her brother out Ellie was forced to live with it, her flat becoming the de-facto home of the Davis family when they returned from assignments she grew used to not knowing what she'd find when she returned home from work and grew to tolerate Moonbeam and the rest of Owen's irregular friends.. although that's not to say there wasn't a few fights along the way when rent was due! The pressure became too much though and they managed to rent a second flat just in time as Moonbeam had fallen pregnant. Ellie quickly became fed up with her brother's attitude towards life and approaching fatherhood and so when the earthquake struck in Haiti Ellie went on assignment for the first time in years in order to catch up with the rest of her family.

While at the time it seemed a stupid idea, it didn't take long for them to run out of supplies and they where constantly tired and Ellie was quickly angered with the speed of help she and her Dad where forced to play peacekeepers when all hell broke loose in Chile soon after. It became obvious to her that her family was falling apart and so argued bitterly for her parents to stay in England and not return to Haiti because of the effect it had had on Kat. Unfortunately she lost the argument and torn she returned to Haiti to pick up the pieces unable to face the mess at home and guilty that Kat had been forced to stay behind for the first time. That summer though things seemed much better, returning from Haiti the family took up the yearly offer to go to Glastonbury only to have some man show up who was supposed to be Kat's brother. Ellie was naturally weary of the stranger having already been forced to let both a stepmother, sister and Moonbeam into her family she wasn't quite ready to let another stranger into her life and so when it came up for Kat to go to Australia Ellie was the only one strongly opposed to the idea but in the end Kat won out and Ellie once again returned to her apartment with the plan to save up and go backpacking to Australia, only to have Owen latch onto the idea as well! So together they've set out, borrowing Mum and Dad's Van they arrived in Darwin before taking the Sturt highway though the centre of Australia and down to Adalade.. however events overtook and with the recent earthquake in Japan the pair found themselves on first contact assignment with their family - a nightmare repeated! So far Ellie and Owen have survived well enough, Ellie's main work since arriving in Japan has been food and supply distribution while Owen tends to spend most of his time at the centres chatting with the kids and playing guitar.
